Y/NOTES is a space for slow thinking about fast technology. It is a platform for commentary by Dr. Gilad Yadin and occasional guests on technology law, ethics, culture, and the future.

Here you will find an uncluttered reading and reflection experience, free from ads, tracking, algorithmic feeds, and other distractions.

Weekly commentary engages with recent developments in scholarship, public discourse, and practice. In-depth series offer an opportunity to learn and gain an academic-level understanding of the structures and ideas behind some of the defining questions of our time.

Y/NOTES is proud to be included in the curated collections of Kagi Small Web, minifeed.net, indieblog.page, Indieseek.xyz, and Blogroll.org.
